Sometimes the harder we try to say something meaningful, the less we have to say.
In this episode, I talk about the pressure to make my practice — and this podcast — mean something, and what happens when that pressure starts to push back.
From overthinking Zen to overcorrecting my dogs on a walk, this is a reflection on letting go of control, easing off the spring, and finding a little Dharma in the bonk.
Sometimes the best practice is to stop forcing the moment… and just let the clown walk the dog.
